Grilled Chipotle Lamb Chops

Feeds 3 (3x chops each). Prep time: 10 minutes. Cooking time: 10 minutes. 

 

9x lamb chops

Olive oil

Chipotle salt

Freshly cracked black pepper

1 tsp liquid smoke 

1 tsp garlic powder

2 tsp onion powder

2 tsp smoked paprika

1 tsp hot paprika 

1 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp dried thyme 

1 tsp dried chilli flakes 

1 tbsp chipotle paste

1 tbsp honey 

4 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 

Fresh basil

 

Place all marinade ingredients in a bowl and mix till throughly combined. Score each chop a few times so the marinade can penetrate the meat. Once the lamb chops are covered in the marinade, place them in a bowl covered with cling film and leave outside the fridge for about an hour. This will help to bring the meat up to room temperate before kicking & helps to relax it. After an hour, begin to heat a large griddle pan or, light the BBQ. Cook on either side for 5 mins or until you have a nice char on either side. If there is excess marinade, re-baste the meat whilst it is cooking.
